NimbostratusSP frontend and Wildcard certs
Working through sharepoint 2013 config. Ran the iApp - finished the configuration - all seems to be working fine.
So, when access through the url i.e. https://sharepoint.mydomain.com/ everything seems to be working fine UNTIL you launch a word document from the sharepoint library. It launches the application than spews an ssl error message and stops loading.
The cert - I am using for the web front-end is a wild card certificate i.e. *.sharepoint.mydomain.com and I believe this is where the issue is.
When I use a single host certificate i.e. sharepoint.mydomain.com -> word or any application has no complaints and everything works fine, as soon as I place the clientssl profile with wildcard certificate back the apps stops responding.
Is there any special config tweaks needed for wildcard certs? SharePoint or otherwise!
Thanks,

are you sure *.sharepoint.domain.com is valid for sharepoint.domain.com? it is for host1.sharepoint.domain.com, host2.sharepoint.domain.com but im not so sure about sharepoint.domain.com.
JimW_156953Using it for sharepoint.domain.com; the webUI appears - all works fine until I launch the word doc from the portal. That's where I get SSL error.
The cert applied is wildcard cert i.e. *.sharepoint.domain.com with SNI name embedded as sharepoint.domain.com

what is the ssl error exactly? do you have ssl to the sharepoint server or just http?

Did client must request URL other than *.sharepoint.domain.com when they open the document?
